Whoops... For those that don't know, I was referring to a four-in-one book that contains the Holy Bible, the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. That's why it's called a quad.

I chose this image because in the final page, a good chunk of this panel will be cropped out. That's because I draw all the panels separately, then scan in the penciled images to arrange in the final page. I can't tell you how many times I've snuck in future characters and small gags in the background, only to have them chopped out of the final page 'cause I forgot how small the panel would be. Overall the page is better for it, but it's still a little sad. T_T

Also, I had an odd thought. So far we've seen Brian in the fall prior to his antlers being shed. I'm rather looking forward to when they do shed as they almost never fall off as a pair, instead usually being separated by a few days. "OMG! I can't let Dawn see me like this!!"

I love little background gags and cameoes that may or may not relate to the actual story!

Well, Brian has been known to flee when it's just he and Dawn in an anonymous classroom. However, Brian has had time to establish a rapport with Dawn's mother. It seems his desire to vindicate himself in her eyes outweighs his reflex to avoid a confrontation with Dawn. Mother Doe (wish we knew her name, to avoid the "Mrs. Doe" and "Dawn's mom" referencing) clearly makes an impression on people. She can assuage Dawn, and inspire confidence in Brian. The strength of steel with the touch of velvet; what a lady!
